Abstract
This study examined the impact of in-service teacher training on classroom teaching of secondary teachers in the region of Imphal, Manipur. A self-made questionnaire was the tool used for data collection from 287 secondary teachers of government secondary schools spread over two districts. The findings that emerged from the data analysis perceived the programme as useful and of importance to the teachers. The training which the teachers received positively affected different phases of classroom teaching. Hypothesis testing was done through Linear Regression analysis which shows that there is significant relationship between in-service teacher training and the different phases (pre-active, interactive and post active phases) of classroom teaching. The study recommends that in-service training is an essential part of a teachers’ professional growth and teachers on the other should strive to make their classroom transaction more significant in all the phase of teaching.
